Are you self-motivated and interested in processing your life experiences to find patterns and make meaning of your emotional experiences? A typical client will be aligned with the belief in the importance of community and community care. I work with clients who are ready to do "the work." The expectation is that clients show up regularly and on time for sessions.

My ideal client is someone who has always put others first—whether as a caregiver, a parentified adult, or a chronic people-pleaser—yet finds themselves struggling to meet their own needs. They may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, lost in the challenges of aging, or curious about exploring alternative healing modalities like cannabis but unsure where to start. Their goal is to reclaim their sense of self, find balance, and achieve a greater sense of peace and fulfillment. They want to break free from the patterns that have kept them stuck and are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

Coaching Therapists
Life coaching is an increasingly popular profession that has no specific licensing or academic requirements. Though psychologists also often consider themselves life coaches, these therapists don't focus on treating mental illness. Instead, they help individuals realise their goals in work and in life.
